The fashion illustrators of the jazz age often placed their models in settings that not only showed off the clothing but conveyed a sense of story. We will put our learning around the fashion figure and illustrative techniques into practice and create a simple narrative piece. I invite you to draw from your own creative journey and environment to infuse personal meaning, yet at the same time entice the viewer to wonder about the mystery of the characters’ story.
This lesson is pure colourful fun. We work mainly with layers of gouache (the traditional illustrators medium), adding details with other media such as Posca pens, fine liners and coloured pencils.
